Gemtech GM-22 .22LR Suppressor with 1/2-28 Thread
- Caliber-Gauge:
- 22 Long Rifle
The Gemtech GM-22 .22LR suppressor is a lightweight, user-serviceable can built on over two decades of silencer refinement. Threaded 1/2-28 for easy mounting on most rimfire rifles and pistols, this suppressor delivers 36–39 dB of sound reduction while weighing just 2.5 ounces—making it ideal for hunters, target shooters, and anyone looking to tame .22 LR report without adding bulk or rotating mass to their rifle. The innovative G-Core design lets you break down and clean the baffles in the field, so you're not stuck with a permanently sealed can gathering fouling.
Built from 7075 aluminum and finished in matte black Cerakote with a reduced visual-IR signature, the GM-22 won't draw eyes downrange and performs in all light conditions. The core uses Gemtech's C3 technology to enhance longevity and suppression. Full-auto rated for .22 LR, it's equally at home on a semi-auto rifle, pistol, or bolt gun—wherever your .22 takes you.
While this suppressor is rated for .22 LR, .22 WMR, and .17 HMR (note: not rated for .17 WSM), the threaded interface ensures compatibility with any .22 platform wearing a 1/2-28 muzzle thread. Centerfire shooters should note this is a rimfire-only suppressor; it's engineered specifically for the lower velocities and pressures of small-bore cartridges.

Frequently Asked Questions
What firearms can I mount the Gemtech GM-22 on?
The 1/2-28 thread fits any .22 LR, .22 WMR, or .17 HMR rifle or pistol with a 1/2-28 muzzle thread. It's not rated for .17 WSM, so verify your firearm's thread pitch before purchase. This suppressor is rated for full-auto .22 LR but works equally well on semi-auto and bolt-action platforms.
Can I take the GM-22 apart to clean it?
Yes. The G-Core design allows you to disassemble and service the baffle stack in the field, making maintenance simple and extending the life of your suppressor. This is one of its standout features for shooters who put significant rounds downrange.
How much sound reduction should I expect?
The GM-22 delivers 36–39 dB of noise reduction with .22 LR ammunition. Actual results can vary depending on ammunition, rifle platform, and shooting conditions, but this specification is tested and represents effective hearing-safe performance.
What does the reduced visual-IR signature finish mean?
The matte black Cerakote tube finish with reduced visual-IR signature is designed to minimize glint and thermal signature, keeping your suppressor less visible in daylight and on thermal equipment—useful for hunters and tactical applications where discretion matters.
